Milestone craft a colourful vertical shooter with well thought-out sabres and electric drones. Deep scoring, pop aesthetics and an electronic score make this entry a great light shooter that contrasts with the more oppressive Cave manics.

Sharp style and shield destabiliser, this G.Rev vertical shooter pulverises enemy fleets by accumulating score through timed destruction. The run is short, but the demanding scoring makes it a performance ground. Its brevity turns into a quest for virtuosity, where you replay endlessly to optimise every wave and every chain.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Published by Milestone with G.rev development, this vertical shooter landed late on a Xbox 360 that barely sold in Japan, keeping the print run small. Its built-in English mode is unusual for a Japanese manic-shooter of the era, widening demand beyond the domestic market. The laser-sword and electric-drone system sets Radirgy apart from the dominant Cave catalogue, and with no reissue the disc holds a value well above its original retail price.
